Our sister site Pocket Gamer has kick-started its handset reviews again (gosh, is that the time?) with a look today at the Sony-Ericsson W850i. As you’d expect, Pocket Gamer’s review concentrates on the games angle (where the W850i achieves a ‘good but no cigar’ rating) but there’s plenty more to recommend this phone, particularly if you’re a muso.
For instance, besides bundled music-making Java apps, the W850i comes with the following cool service:
TrackID is Sony Ericsson’s Shaazam-like service, which lets you record a snatch of song from the built-in FM radio or other source, then identifies what it is and who it’s by through the phone’s 3G internet connection. Very snazzy, and cheaper than Shazam since you only pay for data charges, not a phone call.
